Description
This the original standard-weight pressing of this release which I have owned from new, having bought it about 15 years ago. Please see the photos of the sleeve for track listings and other information about the recording. The sleeve looks almost perfect apart from a few tiny (~1mm) blemishes where it has become discoloured - you can see these marks in the photos. The playing surfaces of the record look pristine - no scratches, fingerprints or other marks.
Grade, using the record collector grading scheme (reproduced below): EX/EX+
Please read these grading notes before bidding / buying:
- All grades are visual only unless stated otherwise. Since this is inevitably subjective I try to err on the side of caution and grade conservatively. The highest grade I will give to a record I have played is EX+ if I have only played the record a few times and the playing surfaces appear pristine.
- Most records have some surface noise and in my experience this is the case even with brand new 'audiophile' pressings played for the first time. Surface noise is usually more noticeable on classical records which often have long quiet passages where the signal-to-noise ratio is lower. I have bought many such records and found that almost all have some background ticks and crackles - you just have to accept that this is part of the vinyl listening experience, especially with classical music. Please take this into account before bidding/buying.
Please see my other items for a number of other records for sale.
Combined shipping is available for multiple orders.
For buyers in the UK shipping will cost £4 for orders up to £20 and £5 for orders between £20 and £50 with a maximum of 6 records per order (doubles count as two). For orders over £50 or buyers outside the UK, the cost will depend on the number, weight, and value of the records. Either contact me before buying for a quote or proceed as described below and wait for the combined invoice.
To take advantage of combined shipping, add the records you want to your basket, click 'request total from seller' and then wait for me to send you a combined invoice before sending payment. Please note that I may not be monitoring my account when you make your purchase so it may be a few hours before you receive the invoice.
I pack records carefully with the record outside the sleeve in a layer of bubble wrap and ship them in a dedicated corrugated cardboard record mailer.
Record Collector grading scheme:
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
